Globalization is a way that allows countries around the world connect with one another. It is a way for countries to interact among the people and integrate their ideals and beliefs. Globalization within Italy is seen as a help. Because the production of resources, such as minerals and metals, is limited in Italy, the country relies on other for imported goods. The goods that Italy is most known for when it comes to globalization are pizza and wine, Fiat (machinery) and religion. Pizza and wine are interdependence because even though they originally began in Italy, they have found their way to other places around the world. People are able eat the pizza of Italy or drink the wine of Italy while being in their own home/country. Fiat is machinery that is interdependence because it is one thing that Italy does export. They are able to create a product that benefits not only their country but other countries as well. The Catholic religion is interdependence because it is the stem of Catholicism around the world, where other countries have adapted to this religion. The negative effect on the country is not having the natural resources for energy and mineral, resulting in them having to rely on other countries to supply their needed goods. The positive effects are their manufactured goods, they have highly skilled workers who operation their machinery/factories and basing their own products on the products that they receive in order to make their own goods to export to other countries. Men and women equally benefit from globalization because jobs are being created where they are equally able to work.
Very interesting! It is interesting to see the contrast between and developed country like Italy, compared to under developed ones. The under developed countries, generally, are worried about losing their cultural identifies by taking part in the globalization of things. It seems that this issue is not a problem for people of Italy. They appear to know what is needed for them to succeed, and are able to export some of their culture to be readily available to others. I would wonder if this globalization is only a result of having to fill the requirements of say, lack of natural resources. I enjoyed your post, it was well written and well thought out. Great job!
